Streamline ChatGPT: compact chat view without clutter

Why ChatGPT needs a cleaner layout

Wide gutters, sticky banners, and busy sidebars can push your chat off center. A compact view keeps the prompt box and responses aligned, improving focus for longer sessions.

ClickRemix recipe for ChatGPT

1. Prompt: "Hide left sidebar, upgrade banners, and announcement bars; center the chat to 840px with balanced padding."
2. Add: "Reduce message spacing; give prompts a subtle tint and keep responses on a neutral background."
3. Ask: "Keep code blocks monospace with copy buttons visible; let the message input stay fixed with a soft shadow."
4. Save as "ChatGPT Focus" for writing and research sessions.

Selectors to target

• Hide nav[aria-label="Sidebar"], [data-headlessui-state] banners, and upgrade cards in the right rail.
• Constrain the chat body by setting a max width on main > div and centering it with auto margins.
• Tighten message gaps by reducing padding on message wrappers and trimming extra margins around code blocks.

If the footer overlaps

Ask ClickRemix to pin the input bar with a small shadow and add bottom padding to the transcript so the last reply never hides behind the composer. For dark mode, keep the chat background deep gray and code blocks high-contrast.
